'''Sun Rock Retreat''' is a nice, [[tauren]]-style, [[Horde]] settlement in middle of the [[Stonetalon Mountains]], south of [[Mirkfallon Lake]]. Though predominantly populated by a large number of both orcish and tauren shamans and warriors, devoted to repairing the damage done to the mountains by the [[Venture Co.]] and other malignant forces.
The '''Kor'kron Guard''' is an organization within the [[Horde]]. For the most part, they are seen as the elite fighting force of the Horde, serving as the personal bodyguards of [[Warchief]] [[Thrall]] at his fortress of [[Grommash Hold]] in [[Orgrimmar]]. A detachment of Kor'kron have also been dispatched to [[Outland]] where they serve as the defenders of [[Shadowmoon Village]] in [[Shadowmoon Valley]], the closest Horde outpost to the [[Black Temple]]. From there, they wage war against the [[Burning Legion]] as well as the legions of [[Illidan Stormrage]].
 
   
  +
The village, since the [[Cataclysm]], has become mostly abandoned with only a few vendors and grunts still hanging around.
More recently the Kor'kron have been deployed in Northrend in full force<ref>{{quest|Message from the West}}</ref> as part of the [[Horde Expedition]].
 
   
  +
==History==
The fortress at the base of [[Angrathar the Wrathgate]] is called [[Kor'kron Vanguard]] and is commanded by [[Dranosh Saurfang|Dranosh Saurfang]].

The retreat is a tauren-controlled outpost run by a druid named [[Maggran Earthbinder]]. A mean-spirited [[blood elf]] named [[Braelyn Firehand]] also once resided here, she enticed travelers to carry out acts of violence against the [[night elves]]. She harbors a special hatred for the night elf [[Ordanus]] in [[Ashenvale]], and actively speaks of hiring a stranger to carry out Ordanus's assassination. The other inhabitants of the retreat were concerned with discovering why elementals sprang from beneath the earth in [[Charred Vale]].<ref>''[[Lands of Mystery]]'', pg 45</ref>

==Travel Connections==
In many ways they seem to be the Horde counterpart of the [[7th Legion]]. Both groups consist of their faction's elite forces, and both are heavily involved in their faction's campaign in Northrend.

Sun Rock Retreat is a nice, tauren-style, Horde settlement in middle of the Stonetalon Mountains, south of Mirkfallon Lake. Though predominantly populated by a large number of both orcish and tauren shamans and warriors, devoted to repairing the damage done to the mountains by the Venture Co. and other malignant forces.

The village, since the Cataclysm, has become mostly abandoned with only a few vendors and grunts still hanging around.

History

The retreat is a tauren-controlled outpost run by a druid named Maggran Earthbinder. A mean-spirited blood elf named Braelyn Firehand also once resided here, she enticed travelers to carry out acts of violence against the night elves. She harbors a special hatred for the night elf Ordanus in Ashenvale, and actively speaks of hiring a stranger to carry out Ordanus's assassination. The other inhabitants of the retreat were concerned with discovering why elementals sprang from beneath the earth in Charred Vale.[1]
